Black's majority opinion noted that the ruling did not apply to someone whose objection to war had no moral, ethical or religious basis "but instead rests solely upon considerations of policy, pragmatism or expediency." The court has been asked to decide several cases in which draftees objected explicitly to serving in the Vietnam War. Black rested his legal argument on a 1965 Supreme Court ruling which reversed the draft conviction of a New York registrant who declined to claim belief in a supreme being as grounds for his refusal to be inducted.

Kompong Speu, 25 miles southwest of Phnom Penh, sits "Both strongly believed that killing in war was wrong, unethical and immoral and their consciences forbade them to take part in such an evil practice. Their objection to participation in war in any form could not be said to come from a still, soft voice of conscience; rather, for them that voice was so loud and insistent that both men preferred to go to jail rather than serve in the arrned forces." Selective Service officials said they anticipated little immediate impact from the ruling, although they conceded the present number of 40,000 claimants of conscientious objector status would increase. They were more concerned about a court ruling on those who cite only their objections to the Vietnam War.

In reversing Welsh's conviction and broadening the rights of a youth to claim conscientious exemption, Black said: "If an individual deeply and sincerely holds beliefs which are purely ethical and moral in source and content but which nevertheless impose upon him a duty of conscience to refrain from participating in any war at any time, those beliefs certainly occupy in the life of that individual a place parallel to that filled in traditionally religious persons. "Because his beliefs function as a religion in his life, such an individual is as much entitled to a religious conscientious objec rather than being suppressed, he said.

"In its improper definition as invective, the rhetoric has already de-escalated," he said. "But in its proper definition as rational public persuasion, the rhetoric of our times needs to be put to constructive use." Agnew told a $100-a-plate Republican fund-raising dinner in prepared remarks that it is irrational dissenters, not the rational ones, whom "I part company with." He said the irrational dissenters focus on emotional issues, reject logic and demand change without intellectual challenge or a constructive alternative.

President Nixon's 21-mile limit on U.S. operations into Cambodia foreclosed the possibility of American troops in the area and a spokesman in Saigon said no U.S. air support had been ordered for the South Vietnamese-Cambodian force. On other fronts, communiques said Viet Cong forces have cut Highway 5 running west out of Phnom Penh to the Thai capital of Bangkok and the Cambodian command announced that North Vietnamese troops were lacing the ancient Buddhist temple ruins at Angkor with mines and setting up antiaircraft guns around the priceless area in northwest Cambodia.

The report on Communist "activity at Angkor, Cambodia's biggest tourist attraction and national treasure, said a force composed of North Vietnamese, Viet Cong and Pathet Lao troops has placed mines and battle emplacements at the entrance to Angkor Wat, the most famous of the Buddhist temples dating back to the 12th century. A Cambodian spokesman said the Communists have set up a hospital in a modern pagoda with the moat surrounding Okora Wat, another temple in the 25-square-mile complex of ruins just outside the city of Siem Reap 150 miles northwest of Cambodia. North Vietnamese troops were reported manning an observation post and antiaircraft position atop Phnom Bakheng, a sharp pointed hill overlooking Angkor Wat and the surrounding forest and rice fields. Heavy fighting raged around Siem Reap and its international airport earlier this month, and at one point the Communists held the airport. It appeared that the Communist force was moving into Angkor in the belief it would be immune from attack by Cambodian troops fearing damage to the shrines.
